Cattle raising techniques and feeding methods What are the cattle raising techniques and feeding methods?

1, meat culture environment

To raise cattle, it is necessary to build a cowshed in a place with high terrain, dryness, good soil quality, rich forage resources and good transportation. The breeding environment is very important for the growth of beef cattle. A good environment can improve the growth ability of beef cattle and reduce the feed cost. If the environment is uncomfortable, it will not only affect the growth of beef cattle, but also reduce the utilization rate and conversion rate of feed. Therefore, when we build a cowshed, we must ensure that the environment is suitable for the growth of beef cattle, including temperature and humidity, light and air quality, so as to provide a good growth environment for beef cattle.

2. Variety breeding

The quality of breeds is also directly related to the breeding benefits of beef cattle. Farmers should ensure similar appearance and good genetic ability when introducing cattle. To raise cattle, we must first ensure good reproductive capacity and normal reproductive capacity. Moreover, the young cattle of the offspring have strong growth ability. Moreover, it is necessary to strengthen the epidemic prevention work of breeding cattle to prevent the harm of infectious diseases. Infectious diseases do great harm to the growth of beef cattle, which will reduce the breeding efficiency and lead to the death of beef cattle.

3. Grazing management

Grazing beef cattle for 2~3 months in the early stage of fattening can not only save some feed costs, but also enhance the physique and bone growth of beef cattle. Of course, it is also necessary to try to adopt captivity in the middle and late stages. Too cold and too hot is not suitable for beef cattle grazing, and grazing in spring and autumn is the most suitable.

4. Feeding management

The main feed of beef cattle is pasture, but the growth of pasture is different in each season. Farmers should adjust the feeding amount and frequency of feed according to seasonal changes. For example, in summer, when the grass grows vigorously, feed it about 3 times a day, with an appropriate amount of compound feed. Then, feed the feed and feed the water in time.

Reduce feeding once a day in winter and spring, and increase the amount of compound feed. It is best to let beef cattle exercise properly after feeding, which can improve the blood circulation speed of beef cattle, promote feed consumption and prevent stagnant water from affecting the growth of beef cattle.

5. Daily management

Farmers should pay attention to the feeding quantity, and there should be no residue in the trough, and then disinfect and deworm the cowshed and cattle body regularly. About once a week, the sink should also be disinfected, and the disinfectant can sprinkle quicklime.

To control the temperature of cowshed, we should pay attention to avoid direct sunlight on beef cattle in summer, avoid heatstroke, improve shade and enhance permeability.

Finally, it is necessary to add some drugs beneficial to digestion in the feed to enhance the disease resistance of beef cattle and improve the breeding efficiency.
